According to Binance, these changes, aimed at increasing market liquidity and improving user trading experience, will take effect from 06:30 (UTC) on October 14, 2024.
Highlights of the adjustment
The tick size, which is the minimum change in unit price, is modified for both SOL USDⓈ-M and COIN-M futures contracts. Binance clarified that this adjustment will not affect USDⓈ-M and COIN-M futures trading operations. API users can also see changes in tick size through the API endpoint. API users are encouraged to use endpoints GET /fapi/v1/exchangeInfo and /dapi/v1/exchangeInfo To get the latest tick size information.
